    President Donald Trump said he spoke with Russian President Vladimir Putin Wednesday about starting negotiations "immediately" to end the war in Ukraine. Trump said in a social media post that he and Putin held a lengthy phone call during which they committed to “work together, very closely” to bring the conflict to an end and would meet in person, including perhaps in each other's countries. It was unclear how closely Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy would be involved. Although Trump held a phone call with him Wednesday, Ukrainian presidential adviser Dmytro Lytvyn said, characterizing it as a "good conversation." Trump's prioritization...
  • Ukraine Offers Cash and Other Financial Incentives for Joining Short-Handed Military

    KYIV, Ukraine (AP) – Ukraine’s Defense Ministry is offering new financial and other benefits that it hopes will attract men between ages 18 and 24 to military service, as its short-handed armed forces toil on the front line against Russia’s bigger army in the almost three-year war. Men in that age group are currently exempt from the country’s draft, which covers men between 25 and 60 years old. Last spring, Ukraine lowered the conscription age from 27 to 25, but that has failed to replenish ranks or replace battlefield losses. Also, some draft-age men have moved abroad, while desertions have...

    There is a private property rights battle brewing in rural parts of southeastern Colorado, New Mexico and Oklahoma and portions of the Dakotas, Nebraska and five Tribal Nations. The U.S. Department of Energy has plans to establish the National Interest Electric Transmission Corridors or NIETCs, in these areas and the corridors span five to 15 miles in width. If approved, in New Mexico about 2 million acres of mostly private property would be transferred to the control of the federal government potentially via eminent domain. In Colorado, farmers, ranchers and rural residents stand to lose control of 325,000 acres in...

    Grotesquely lopsided exchanges.. Israel has committed itself to freeing 1,900 Palestinian prisoners, including many who are serving life sentences for multiple murders. And for these 1,900, Israel is getting back a mere handful of hostages — likely no more than fifty remain alive of the 98 hostages Hamas supposedly still holds — all of them innocents. Perhaps you’d like to see what 80 of those prisoners are guilty of, to begin to appreciate the danger inherent in this grotesquely lopsided exchange. How many of these terrorists will use their freedom to murder again? 82% of the 1,027 Palestinians who were...

    YOUR TAX DOLLARS FUNDING JIHAD USAID has funneled $7.6 billion of American taxpayer money to the Palestinian Authority, and guess what the PA does with that money? It explicitly pays terrorists for killing Jews. The PA has handed out $142 million to the 734 terrorists set to be freed—roughly $500,000 per terrorist. The more Jews they slaughtered, the more cash they got. ... Islamist infiltration made USAID and the equivalent program in Canada a Qatari Muslim Brotherhood asset.

    For years Marine Corps leaders have been calling for more amphibious ships to transport Marines and their warfighting equipment around the globe. But a recent government oversight report revealed what bad shape the Navy’s existing amphibious ships are in – and raised major concerns about challenges for the Marine Corps in fulfilling critical national security missions. Of the 32 amphibious warfare ships now in inventory, only half are in “satisfactory” shape, a Government Accountability Office (GAO) report released in December showed. Sixteen ships are classified in “poor material condition,” including five of the nine amphibious assault ships, the largest and...

    Around 300 US military personnel have arrived at Naval Station Guantanamo Bay (GITMO) in southeast Cuba to assist in the construction of makeshift shelters intended to house illegal immigrants deported from the United States. The troops will then provide security for the migrant shelters, the New York Times reported. This comes as part of the Trump administration's mass deportation operations, where the president ordered the military to prepare the island for at least 30,000 deportations. Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth said that the thousands of migrants would be housed separately from the military prisoners detained on the base. He also...

    This USAID story is eliciting reactions that seem surprising to most people. Let me break down the real story for you. A short 🧵1/ USAID is a front for the CIA. They are an unaccountable agency, under the cover of humanitarian efforts overseas, who operate via various NGOs, to carry out domestic operations. 2/ When the dust settles we are going to find out that most of the domestic terror we have seen the last few years (think BLM and INTIFA riots) were funded by USAID. That is just the tip of the iceberg. 3/ They have been able to...

The revelation came after US President Donald Trump’s administration froze virtually all foreign aid with the exception of Israel and Egypt. However, Zelenskyy had then said that the US...
